Author has written 159 stories for Supernatural, Boondock Saints, Dukes of Hazzard, and Four Brothers.

Most of my stories are complete. However, there are several that are still works in progress. While all of my stories will be finished at some point, I have no specific timeline for their completion. I follow wherever my muse leads with no regrets.

I realize, though, that some readers do not wish to become involved in a story that is uncompleted thus far. If you fit that description, you might consider checking a story's status before you start reading it. Doing so will save us both a lot of time and unnecessary drama.

Thank you for reading and reviewing. I truly appreciate the enthusiasm and support I've received on this site.

Please understand - sometimes I can't choose what I work on. I can't follow through on a line of thinking just because I want to or...or because it's needed. I have to work on what's in my head. And right now, this is what's in my head... -- Charlie Eppes

Pizza Pie 'verse – Dean stared up at Bobby, holding a crying Sam and looking uncharacteristically spooked even as he kept his voice steady. "Something's wrong with Sam's eyes," he reported, his expression reflecting his confusion and concern. "He can't open them."

Pre-movie – 8-year old Jack and big brother Bobby – Bobby twitched a smile, easing his arm from under Jack and settling the sleeping eight-year old against his side like the kid belonged there. Because he did belong there. Jack belonged beside Bobby, safe and sound.

Tag to 3x03, "Bad Day at Black Rock" – Slightly Hurt Sam / Big Brother Dean – Dean had announced in big brother fashion that they were heading back to the motel to clean Sam up. Sam had argued that wasn't necessary. But here they were. Back at the motel.

AU Tag to 9x07 – 10-year old Hurt Sam, 14-year old Big Brother Dean, Awesome Sonny – He was familiar with the type of kid who was currently handcuffed and sitting on his couch. But the one thing throwing Sonny for a loop was this other kid. This scrawny little guy in an oversized hoodie who was clearly several years younger than the thief he was sitting beside.

Pizza Pie 'verse – Bobby smiled at the four-year old standing beside his desk. "What 'cha got there, squirt?" Though the old hunter suspected he already knew. After all, Sam was always drawing pictures of himself and Dean...especially when his big brother had been away on a hunt with John like the eight-year old had been this weekend.

Tag to 9x17, "Mother's Little Helper" – Hurt Sam / Guilty, Protective Big Brother Dean – Dean shook his head in denial even as he continued to stare at the dark bruises that covered Sam's abdomen. His mind buzzing as it quickly cataloged the organs located on the left side of the body...and concluded without a doubt that Sam's spleen had ruptured.

AUish Tag to 9x16, "Blade Runners" – Hurt Sam / Big Brother Dean – Dean sighed harshly and turned in his chair, preparing to lay into his brother...and then abruptly changing his mind when he actually saw his brother. Because Sam was standing there...but he was barely on his feet as his blood covered everything.

AUish Tag to "After School Special" – Teenchesters – Sick Sam / Big Brother Dean – There was a distinct line between feeling like you might throw up...and knowing without a doubt that you were definitely going to throw up. Such was the horrifying realization as Sam shifted uncomfortably and swallowed hard while he stood beside Dean in the hallway of Truman High.

Post 9x13 – Slightly Injured Sam/Big Brother Dean – Usually after a conversation like they had experienced the previous night, they would avoid each other, especially the next morning. But here Dean was. Because Sam needed painkillers and water and someone to call him on his BS...and all of that sounded like a job for Dean Winchester.

Pre-Series – Upset Sam/Big Brother Dean – While Dean couldn't bring their mom back, he could make sure his little brother felt safe and loved. He could make sure Sam's childhood included the things it should...like having cupcakes for the kid's kindergarten party.

Pizza Pie 'verse – 4-yr old Sam, 8-yr old Dean, Awesome Uncle Bobby, Puppy Rumsfeld...and John being John – Bobby continued to listen, hearing Dean's voice as it floated down the hall; the big brother talking Sam through his usual bedtime routine as if it was just another night. As if the four-year old wasn't covered in blood. As if Dean wasn't also covered in blood.

9x04 Tag – Come Darkness, Come Light 'verse – Crowley smirked as the angel stared at him. "Fancy meeting you here, eh?" Ezekiel arched Sam's eyebrow at the sarcasm. Because they both knew full well their paths would cross again here. The Men of Letters bunker being the epicenter of the ultimate chess match between good and evil.

9x04 Tag – Come Darkness, Come Light 'verse – Ezekiel stared back, his usual blue eyes glowing yellow in the darkness. Dean's heart pounded in his chest, vaguely wondering if this was a dream as he immediately stood and lunged at the angel, slamming him back into the opposite wall.

9x02 Tag – Come Darkness, Come Light 'verse – Dean felt his stomach clench at the icy blue glowing back at him from his little brother's eyes. It appearing as though Ezekiel was trying to surface while Sam was still very much awake and alert.

Post 8x23, Pre 9x01 – Sick, Hospitalized Sam / Worried, Big Brother Dean – Dean had supported all of Sam's weight as he had carried the kid toward the ER, the double doors automatically sliding apart as the brothers had approached. Dean having barely cleared the entrance before he had started yelling for help...

E/O Challenge - "You know...I'd fight a bear for you." Sam blinked at the unexpected, indirect declaration of brotherly love and glanced up as Dean sat across from him. "What?" "You heard me," Dean returned but then repeated himself anyway. "I'd fight a bear for you."

Post Season Eight – Sick Sam / Big Brother Dean – Every day had been the same since that rainy night. Their world now reduced to each other and the Batcave and nothing else. And strangely enough...that was fine. Let the world save itself for once. Dean had other priorities. The only thing that mattered was Sam.

Season 8 Finale – Sam's spine was not actually being ripped out through his mouth. It just felt like it was, causing pain and paralysis while taking Sam's breath and his ability to speak. Dean shook his head, refusing to believe he had just stopped Sam from killing himself in this third trial only to watch his little brother live the rest of his life wishing he was dead.

AU Spin on 8x20 – Sick Sam / Big Brother Dean / Quirky, Supportive Charlie – If Sam was sicker now than when they had left him...if they indeed found him on the floor coughing up blood...then Dean would handle it; Dean would take care of his brother; Dean would somehow make it better. Charlie had never been so sure of anything else in her life.

Season 8 – Sick Sam / Big Brother Dean – Outsider POV – Dean frowned suspiciously at the grocery store cashier before glancing at the plastic bags now loaded with his must-haves these days – the juice and the soup and the meds...and everything else. Which of course had led the cashier to her conclusion about Dean having a sick kid at home...and in a way, she was right.

Season Two – Hurt Sam / Big Brother Dean / Awesome Bobby – If Sam was unconscious in a ditch out on Old Mill Road that would certainly help explain why the kid was late and why Dean couldn't reach him on his phone for the past half hour.

Post 8x19 – Sick Sam / Big Brother Dean – One day, Sam would give the amulet back to Dean; had already decided to return it before the third trial...just because and just in case. Just because Sam loved his brother, just because he believed in second chances...and just in case he didn't come back.

Post 8x19 – Sick Sam/Big Brother Dean/Prophet Kevin – "I guess you guys don't have a charm that 'burns hot in the presence of God?" Kevin asked, reading directly from the tablet and then laughing nervously. Dean swallowed at the specific description and exchanged glances with Sam. Because he once had a charm like that, but the amulet was gone. Wasn't it? Sam smiled. Maybe not...

Post 8x19 – Sick Sam/Big Brother Dean – For the past two weeks, Dean had restlessly slept on a cot that was right beside Sam's bed, within reaching distance if the kid called out for Dean in the night; the big brother keeping vigil literally 24/7. Because Sam, the most independent Winchester, didn't want to be left alone – not even for a second – and Dean didn't want to leave him.

Post 8x17 – Hurt Sam / Big Brother Dean – Dean stared at Sam motionless on the bed; his heart hammering in his chest as his mind tallied his brother's symptoms and produced a diagnosis – internal bleeding. The kind of internal bleeding that was worse than just a few bloodied tissues hidden at the bottom of a trashcan.

Post 8x16 – Sam coughed again, tasting the bitter tang of copper in his mouth, and then wiped his lips; the gesture too familiar as he had tried to keep this hidden from Dean over the past few weeks. And now the secret was out. But apparently the secret was worse than even Sam had known because the coughing had never been this bad; the blood had never been this much.

Pizza Pie 'verse – 4-year old Hurt Sam, 8-year old Big Brother Dean, Awesome Uncle Bobby, Grumpy Daddy John, Puppy Rumsfeld – Before midnight, John was going to listen. Because Bobby wasn't going to stand by and let a new year begin with old habits. The boys deserved better. And John needed to wake up before his unintentional negligence led to one of his kids getting hurt.

Pre-Series AU – Deaf Sam, Big Brother Dean – Dean had cringed at Sam's request for him to join the kid at the play but had agreed because that's what Dean did...whatever Sam needed. And tonight, Sam needed him to interpret.

AU 8x01 – Sick Sam, Protective Big Brother Dean, Suspicious Amelia – "Sounds like you fight for what you want and protect what you love," the man commented over the phone. Amelia nodded at the accurate description. "I do," she confirmed. "So do I," the man responded smoothly. "And I'm coming for Sam. So you take care of him until I get there…and then we'll see who he chooses."

Pizza Pie 'verse – 4-year old Sam, 8-year old Dean, Awesome Bobby, Daddy John...and a new addition to the family – It was Christmas, after all. And if now wasn't the time for puppies and surprises, then such a time didn't exist.

Season One – Hurt, Missing Sam / Worried Big Brother Dean – Dean shifted where he sat; an uneasy feeling twisting his stomach as he read the words once more on the small screen of his phone and stared at the unfamiliar email address that had sent them. Because he only had one thing in his life that would fit the description of an Achilles heel...and the kid wasn't there right now.

Pre-Series Fluff – 4-year old Sam, 8-year old Dean, Awesome Bobby...and a dash of John – Bobby never doubted that John loved his kids, but the father was missing so much; so many precious moments that would never return. Like making pizza with a four-year old...

Season 8 – Sam glanced at the Latin scrawled on the back of the napkin he held, remembering how he had hurriedly jotted down the words a few nights ago in the dimly lit backroom of a local bar. Remembering how his heart had hammered in his chest at the possibility of having finally found the right person with the right spell to bring his brother back.

AU Tag to 8.06 – Hurt Sam / Guilty Big Brother Dean – "I just don't want to fight about this anymore." It was the last thing Dean would remember Sam saying before it happened; before a truck ignored a stop sign and raced through the intersection, slamming into the passenger side of the Impala.

E/O Challenge - Mary sighed, glancing at her sleeping children beside her on the motel bed and knowing that she couldn't continue down this path; that she couldn't continue with this life; that she couldn't raise her boys as hunters while she crisscrossed the county in her dead husband's muscle car.

AU Tag to 8.06 – Hurt Sam / Guilty Dean / Garth...being Garth – Nobody moved as the faint ping of the cursed coin falling to the floor was lost in the sudden deafening sound of a gun being fired at close range. A gun that had accidently gone off during the brief struggle. A gun that had been aimed directly at Sam.

Season 7 or later in Season 8...your choice – Sam swallowed as he blinked against the unexpected sting of tears; touched that after everything they had been through, most of Dean's life – including his brother's stupid email password – still revolved around him.

Season 8 – Dean swallowed, having spent his entire year in Purgatory thinking about – worrying about – his little brother; having had so many things he wanted to say and ask when he finally saw Sam again. But it was clear from Sam's vacant expression that Sam had absolutely no idea who he was.

Season 8 – "Where's Sam?" Dean asked, feeling his heart hammer in his chest as adrenaline began to flood his system; his body preparing to fight while his mind buzzed with potential reasons for why a vampire he trusted and a demon he hated would be standing together in nonverbal solidarity.

Halloween Pre-series – Hurt Sam, Big Brother Dean – Dean blinked at the wall covered with photos of Sam; the snapshots displayed in a way that implied obsession...and careful study. Dean swallowed at the implication as he turned a slow, deliberate circle in the middle of the room; his eyes now scanning every object he had previously dismissed.

E/O Challenge - One minute Dean was flirting with a middle-aged waitress at the diner they had stopped at for lunch...and the next he was frowning across the table at Sam as his brother suddenly gasped and grabbed his head with both hands.

Pre-Series – Severely Allergic Sam / Big Brother Dean – Dean ignored the surrounding crowd; completely focusing on Sam as he continued to hold his brother in his lap and then jabbed the EpiPen into the kid's leg.

Season Seven – Sam & Dean encounter an unexpected surprise when they meet Garth at a local bar – "I'm telling you right now..." Dean warned. "If somebody asks me to sing, I will not be responsible for what I do with their happy little microphone."

Tag to 7x23 – Hurt Sam, Big Brother Dean...and a few surprises – "While it is possible you will live..." the Alpha Vamp explained to Sam. "It is also highly likely you will bleed out by the time Dean is brought back to this side."

Tag for 7x03 – Teenchesters / Hurt Sam / Big Brother Dean / Fairly Awesome John – "If you find him, maybe she'll let you have him back." Dean arched an eyebrow; not in the mood to play games. Because Sam belonged to him...and Dean intended to find the kid.

AU tag to "After School Special" – Injured Sam, Big Brother Dean – Dirk smiled as he began walking in Sam's direction; wondering if the kid who thought he was so tough was going to be tough enough to survive a bullet.

Pre-series – Weechesters, Daddy John – Outsider POV – She had heard the rumors that had been floating around the teacher's lounge about how he was a drifter; how his wife was gone and it was just him and his boys bouncing from town to town.

Crossover – SPN/Boondock Saints – It was the Latin that caught his eye; that made Dean bump shoulders with Sam as they stood in line and then nod toward the familiar words inked in black on the men's hands.

Pre-series – Baby Sam, Kid Dean, Awesome Daddy John POV – Three days ago, I used to trust...and all that got me was a dead wife, a six-month old barely managing to take his next breath, and a four-year old who no longer talked.

Completely AU, FBI 'verse – Hurt Sam, Hurt Dean – with John, Mary, Bobby...and many others – When the gunfire stops, Dean's shirt and both his hands are covered in blood, but he's alive. Across the way, Sam lies unmoving on the floor.

Pre-Series – Hurt Sam, Hurt/Worried Big Brother Dean – Although Sam had been shot and beaten, he couldn't allow himself the luxury of lying there in the leaves; of trying to slow the rhythm of his breathing. Because they were still coming; were still tracking him through the woods. He could hear them.

Pre-Series – Sam, 12; Dean, 16 – The man, the familiar-looking stranger, was staring at him. And not only that, he was smiling and nodding – the way people did when they finally found what they had been looking for.

AU tag to 6.11 – One minute Sam was screaming...and the next, he wasn't even breathing. He had lost consciousness the instant Death had disappeared from the panic room, and how they had ended up in the emergency room was still a blur to Dean.

Pre-Series, Mary's POV as she keeps vigil at John's bedside. – For now the nurse's face is creased with compassion and weariness...and it's not really the right time to tell her that you don't know what I am...what I've done...

AU Tag to 6.11 – Sam had his soul back, but he was...different. Less Sammy, more Rain Man. But being electrocuted – even if it was only minor – had the potential to be life-changing. Such was the case.
